Well, it was the last meeting before the summer holidays. The sun was shinning and it was hot. How hot? Very hot! The patrol points were even so it was winner takes all.
On a hot night we thought we would warm them up with a wind the tent in game. The cord is attached to a broom handle which must be wound up slowly dragging the tent closer.
After that it was mostly water games. Fill the cup, over and under the poles, first team to fill the jug at the other end of the course is the winner. "But the cups have got holes in!" Well spotted. Off you go.
Then the same with the water carried in sponges, even wetter Scouts, moving on to playing catch with either eggs or water filled balloons. Finally, for the wet games, how much water can you get from one end of the line to another by pouring it from your cup into the next persons cup, almost forgot, the cup is on your head.
Dried off with a bit of French cricket and a nice calm game of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John so the parents didn't get 150% hyped up kids back home.
Top evening, much water was used, a spectacular egg catch with explosion all over chin and top, but sadly no photo, and Wolves topped the scores to win the summer term patrol points competition. Congratulations.
Have a great summer everyone, see you in September. Keep checking back because, once we get organised, the next terms program will be listed here.
